Nope.

Same Mourinho that would always use Ozil.

Same one that bought Fabregas. As defensive as Jose is, he never plays with his creative channels

Lampard is not setting up any team to deal with the inadequacies. Infact he's doing the opposite. 2 years later, We still do not know what Lampards playing pattern or coaching philosophy is

When are you guys gonna say things for what they are regardless of your favorites.

JM never used Ozil in the PL. And Fabregas was not lazy. He was also press-resistant. As of now, Havertz doesn't look to be either of those - hard working and press-resistant.

At this point, Havertz cannot even match Dele Alli's non-existent work-rate, and you think he will come into a JM PL side?

Asides from the game against westham, I don't think any other Mason mount corners have been met with a goal. See as ziyech dey whip his crosses and corners in now that's how to play a corner not lobbing it to drop it from the sky like it's manner from heaven.
the same mount that has 3 assists from set-piece?? or which one?

I wonder when you will man up and say things the way they are. Lampard bought Harvetz and its up to him to get to best out of his players.

From what I read in the summer, the board bought Havertz and not Lampard. If a player doesn't have it, they don't have it. No matter how many managers tried to get the best out of Pogba or Pepe, it is up to them to work hard. Havertz won't come good this season. Maybe next season he might improve if he takes time to reflect on the demands of the league he's in and what it takes to succeed in it.

I'm sure we can find some here who would say they read otherwise and please don't start another "Enemalo" discuss here. lol.
Yes they (the players) have to work hard but you certainly can't absolve Lampard of any blame here which is what you are trying to do.
Besides, this is not even specifically about Havertz, I think the team lacks consistency and that is up to the manager. That is the koko.

lol. What I read was not your usual lazy journalism where they say "such and such manager wants to sign X player even though the player may be a youth player the manager never even thought about". It was an in-depth report about the ins-and-outs of the transfer, how Chelsea technical team have been scouting him for 3 years and feel he is a generational talent that they don't want to escape into the hands of other big clubs and how the pandemic put Chelsea in a financial position other big clubs can't match at this moment so they felt they had to go for him now or risk losing him. It also detailed how Frank was resistant to the idea, deeming it unnecessary and telling the board that Rice was more necessary instead, but in the end said OK since the technical team and board are behind the Havertz signing, no wahala. Those are the sort of detailed reports I pay attention to, not your usual lazy transfer rumours. I wish I could find that report now.

Yes, we are inconsistent, but those are mostly to do with injuries, and having to fit in incongruent players like Havertz into a system. We were flying on a 17 match unbeaten run until Ziyech got injured, compounded by simultaneous injury to Odoi and return of Havertz from Covid which turned our midfield that was working well in his absence to rubbish.

As for those saying cross and nod is our tactics, isn't that what they accuse Liverpool of. The fact is that when a team sit in low block, the most likely way to penetrate them is by your fullbacks as that's the only area of the pitch with space. This is somewhat compounded by lack of a mobile and powerful striker that can offer other options. Cavani would have been perfect in that regard. You can't play ball into Abrahams feet to build an attack through the centre without him tripping over, likewise you can't give Giroud a ball in behind or slightly wide to drag players out of position.

These are the tactical considerations that we think of when watching the game, not just joining in scattergun criticism that has no head or tail.

Sir. You are just giving excuses.

Even you will do a better job than Lampard at management, no cap.

I think Lampard was your favorite player. cheesy You are very attached, you don't want to criticize him, because I've seen you for years in this thread criticize managers rightfully..

Lampard is still many of us favorite player and legend.
That we don't want him as a manager is not we hate super Frank Lampard.

If you start your peppering barkabots with Lampard >>>>> Iniesta argument, we will still support you cheesy

But right now, he needs to learn, he can't use Chelsea to learn work, NO.

He didn't even reply you directly, but shift goal post. grin
You will never find the keyword "Lampard" in all is critics because of his sentimental attachment.
You just said everything about his relationship with Lampard.
